Brand story
Why buyers track Traulsen
Traulsen sits in the heavy-duty refrigeration tier: institutional kitchens, hotels, caterers, and high-volume restaurants buy it for cabinet strength and temperature recovery. On a used unit, the cabinet, doors, gaskets, compressor behavior, and data plate matter more than age alone.

What to inspect first
Buy the unit, not just the nameplate
Door alignment
Inspect hinges, latches, and gaskets; heavy doors need to close squarely and seal fully.
Temperature recovery
Ask how quickly the cabinet returns to temp after loading or repeated door openings.
Data plate and power
Verify model, voltage, phase, and amperage before arranging transport.
